Bold text appears in print preview but does not print bold

I am working on a menu in Publisher. In print preview, all text in bold
appears bold, but when I actually print, portions of the bold text does not
print in bold. This problem applies to all text within specific text boxes.
For some text boxes the bold prints and for some it doesn't. Any suggestions
would be enormously appreciated.

What version Publisher? Don't know if that makes a difference however.

If you look in the font directory in the control panel you will see a separate
font for bold, italic, condensed and so on for fonts like Times New Roman and
Arial. If you use a font that has no separate file for bold in the font folder,
Publisher will fake it. This maybe the reason you are not getting a consistent
print. Try using a font that comes with a bold file.

Look for an updated print driver on the manufacturer's web site if the above is
not the problem.
